This editing refuses to go away. I bailed on the first half of the coffee hour yesterday so I could finish printing everything out and assembling it all in the right order, because I knew it was going to the publications office today and I didn't want to have to get up and go deal with it this morning. So this morning I get e-mail saying there are major problems with two of the pieces, one of which I swear was all right yesterday and the other of which is 60 pages long and in outline form, and if the indents are wrong somewhere in the middle, it's very hard to track (and I hope that's what's wrong with it. I've been formatting this stuff and making proofreading corrections without actually reading it.)
Next project management meeting on Sunday. I fervently hope the last e-mail I got about it isn't really saying that the meeting is going to be six hours long, but the person who wrote it had sprained an ankle and admitted that she was on the really good drugs and therefore somewhat loopy when she wrote that. Since last Saturday I've spent about nine hours in meetings for a three-credit class.
Other than that, I have to go grocery shopping today, and I really should go buy the academic regalia for graduation. (Why is it that Master's robes cost twice as much as undergrads', anyway?) And I really should start actually writing my case study analysis. The problem with that is, I'm not sure where to start, and I don't really want to start in the middle. I've never been able to write the body of a paper and then stick an introduction and a conclusion on it afterward. I suppose I can write something as a placeholder and go back and fix it afterward.
Right, and call Airtran. I've only been meaning to do that for two days. (When will I learn that nothing nonacademic gets done on Thursdays?)
I did actually get ahold of a real human being at the driving school on Wednesday, so they're sending me a contract in the mail.
I feel like I've been getting things done without actually accomplishing anything. Mildly frustrating, that.
